Frank,

"Isn't funny that just a few days before the launch of windows 2000 Europe is suddenly concerned about Microsoft. Who do you think put them up to this crap??"

Have no idea how the Europeans decide when to do something but the question I'm wondering is how McNealy alone could have so much influence over the Europeans? You would think that Microsoft has a greater influence over there than Sun.

It could have something to do with some ISO standard that Europe is adhering to which is not supported by W2K. Microsoft should at least make their products work with whatever standards the European markets are using as well as their own proprietary ones. They must be using WindowsNT over there so what could have changed in W2K?

Cheers,

Norm
